Visual glitches

[Alastair91]

Any ideas what is causing them? Also I've noticed that some textures flickers and takes up to 2-3 seconds to render properly after fast travelling, is this normal? I'm not using any modded or DLC texture packs. Exiting and restarting the game solves the problem but after roughly 30 minutes of gaming it started happening again.

I'd remove all mods from your game and try a few a day and see what works with dawnguard and if those three mods cause no problem's add another three mods in tell you find the mod causing the issues in those pictures, not all mods well work with dawnguard!..

[Alastair91]

Just a quick update: I fixed the problem by downgrading some graphic enhancement mods (Skyrim Flora Overhaul and Water mod) from HQ to low to mid range. The textures now render properly and I no longer experience the visual glitch at Understone keep.

ASIS.esp

 

Climates of Tamerial and Frostfall are not currently compatable and if your useing the 1.61 Alpha that does not provide nearly the functionality of 1.6b with vanilla weather. Water Is a beast on your FPS becuase the Meshes are 2 to 3 times the size of the originals, not to mention you should not have Water-GetWet.esp in your load order becuase this is included in Frostfall and will cause you issues.

 

DYNAVISION Dynamic Depth of Field.esp

I would not have this actively working its going to sap your FPS and cause texture loading issues unless you downgrade your settings

 

83Willows_101BUGS_V4_HighRes.esp

Your losing FPS here everytime your near these bugs. I no longer even bother with the low res version. Think about it your running around in the open world get into a big fight becuase of this ASIS.esp and your fps goes down to slide show and bam CTD not worth it.

 

RealisticWhiterun.esp Beautiful Whiterun.esp BetterRiften.esp StaticMeshImprovementMod.esp DwarvenMech.esp Dwemer Scouter.esp WATER.esp WATER - Get Wet.esp

Your likely haveing severe drops in FPS in these areas I'd cut all of these before lowering my graphics settings

 

Space Wiking's Dwemer Exoskeleton.esp

No surpise to me that your toon was wearing this animated armor in Whiterun and you were experiencing texture loading issues

 

ClimatesOfTamriel

I know it says on the front page NO FPS LOSS but the guy that made this file isnt looking at what you have loaded into your game. Your taking a hit here.

If you have ENB on top of this your taking another big FPS hit

 

ShadowStripping Fix.esp

I'd adjust the Ini before downlaoding an esp to do the job, also likely not compatible with Climates

 

Rooster At Dawn v1.0.esp

Useless immersion wouldn't dream of having this in addition to ASIS

 

EveryoneGetInside.esp

I've never seen this work as intended by the mod author, could just be becuase I'm using ASIS which redirects how all NPC AI works...This probably should not be in your load order unless you hand write in the behavoirs for townspeople AI into the ASIS config files yourself

 

BFSEffects.esp

No idea what this is but I read effects and this is why you have to reduce your graphics

 

Also your on a labtop computer so what this means is that your computer is robbing your processor of power to show you eyecandy...Which means less power to run papyrus and end result crash. You need to get a program to test your FPS at baseline to help with your mod use decisions.

 

hothtrooper44_ArmorCompilation.esp

Off the top of my head I believe the packaged texture files are larger than 1024

You can use a texture optimizer to reduce the textures to your desired size here.

 

Also most of your Weapon and Armor mods that you've downloaded are going to have textures that are not optimized and are most certainly going to have textures that are 2064 rather than Bethsada's 512 thats a huge increase in size and is very demanding on your computer if you had to reduce graphics to see these creations at all than your already not getting the full enjoyment of the game download this http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/12801

Reduce your entire texture folder and all BSA's to 1024 or even butcher them down to 512

 

You need to get your game running at around 50 FPS for stability and to make it an enjoyable experience.

Thank you very much, you've been very helpful by doing this. I think I'll remove some of the more useless mods that I have. Kudos and once again thank you.
